  This beautifully illustrated overview of the wildlife of the British Isles showcases the diversity of our plant and animal life. 
  Wild Isles is a celebration of the wildlife found on a relatively modest collection of islands positioned at a latitude so northerly to be unattractive to many animals and plants. Despite these unpromising foundations, the islands of Britain and Ireland, together with more than 6,000 lesser islets that make up our archipelago, contain some of the most diverse, beautiful and wildlife-rich landscapes and seas on our planet. 
  This book will explore the fascinating relationships within and between species who make their home on our beautiful isles. 
  Each chapter focuses on a particular kind of wild space. Britain and Ireland are dominated by a wide variety of grasslands from lowland water meadows to upland moors, and we will see how these human-shaped, semi-natural landscapes thrum with insect, bird and mammal life. Life requires water to flourish, and streams and rivers carry freshwater through our landscape, creating unique ecosystems and interrelations within and beside these waters, which are revealed in a third section. While Britain and Ireland’s woodlands are comparatively thin on the ground compared with most of continental Europe, we will see some of the forests and trees that remain are unusually ancient and, great repositories of life. Finally, of course, we are surrounded by sea, and our position on the continental shelf before it plunges into the depths of the Atlantic Ocean gives rise to an often overlooked plenty of marine life. A glorious richness divided into five breathtaking sections. 
  In Wild Isles, the latest Sunday Times bestselling book by Patrick Barkham, the beauty and diversity of nature in the British Isles are brought to life. Through stunning photography and engaging narrative, Barkham explores the various habitats and the intricate ecology that defines them. 
  For fans of Martin Stevens (Sensory Ecology, Behaviour, and Evolution), Jonnie Hughes (Earthshot), Josh Young (Expedition Deep Ocean), Matt Kaplan (The Science of Monsters), and Nigel Henbest (Philip's Stargazing 2024 Month-by-Month Guide to the Night Sky Britain & Ireland).

  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “Joe Pesci's Oscar acceptance speech is the sixth shortest in the Academy's history. It was simply, "It's my privilege, thank you." He later admitted that he didn’t expect to win, which is why he kept it short.” 
    
  “Ray Liotta once mentioned that Robert De Niro and Joe Pesci were like the "glitter" of the film, while he was more like the "glue" that held everything together.” 
    
  “The film was ranked number two on the American Film Institute's list of the greatest gangster films in June 2008.” 
    
  “Initially, producer Irwin Winkler disagreed with Martin Scorsese's choice of Ray Liotta for the role of Henry Hill. Liotta convinced him in a conversation at a restaurant.” 
    
  “Robert De Niro was offered the roles of both Jimmy "The Gent" Conway and Tommy DeVito, but he chose to play Jimmy.”
